NS were unfavorable at mps and the bidding went:

1♦-p-1♠-(2♥)
3♠-(4♥)-4♠-end

♦A-small-small-small
♥A-small-small-small
♦-small-T-K

Over to you. Opps don't know what their carding is, they are quite clueless in fact.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

I think I'll finesse in spades, I'll lead the Jack in fact.

Also, he rates to not have a heart void when he leads the ♥3.

No genius here. I would just finesse the spades. I try low to the queen to guard against the singleton K to my left. I'm pretty confident that righty has the last diamond, so I not so afraid of the handling problems, should west have a small singleton spade instead of the king.

What?

I mean, LHO is doing one of two things.

Either he has a doubleton diamond, like it seems, and is waiting for a diamond ruff when the spade finesse fails, or

He has the spade King and is providing a ruse to get us to play for the drop.

What, am I supposed to think RHO signals wrong, and LHO is pulling a rus on me, and RHO bids on air?

Spade to the Ace for me.

Before internet age you had a suspicion there are lots of "not-so-smart" people on the planet. Now you even know their names.
